Domingue was designated for waivers by the Rangers on Tuesday, per PuckPedia.
Domingue was always going to be the third option in New York behind Igor Shesterkin and Jonathan Quick, so his potential demotion shouldn't come as a surprise. There could be some teams interested in submitting a claim for the veteran Domingue, especially clubs dealing with goaltending injuries like Anaheim, Pittsburgh and Chicago. If he clears, Domingue should report to AHL Hartford.

Rangers' Louis Domingue: Agrees to two-year deal
Rotowire
Domingue snagged a two-year, $1.55 million contract from the Rangers on Wednesday.
While Domingue likely will come into training camp as the presumptive No. 3 option for the Rangers, it's not impossible that he could edge out Jaroslav Halak for the backup job behind Igor Shesterkin. Even if he does make the Opening Night roster, Domingue is unlikely to see enough NHL action to consider taking him in most fantasy formats except perhaps as a pairing option with Shesterkin.
